Just through the door
Firstly, it's nice to catch up with Pete after many years of not visiting this place. My riding went in other directions that included many years of racing, sold my last race bikes back in late 2014 while still having my GTR1400.
Anyway enough of the past, went for my first ride on the Tiger XCX and I am in love, this bike has everything I have been looking for over the years but couldn't bring myself to buy one.
Picked it up on Friday and didn't get to throw a leg over it until Sunday. Had some photography commitments at the Phillip Island Classic on the Saturday but decided Sunday was my time to start testing the new stealth out.
Spent a couple of hours in the Bunyip State Park after riding a few bitumen twisties on the way, the bike just loved both surfaces.

Can't wait to get out there again, just not sure the tyres are perfect choice to venture too much off the gravel stuff.
